The Covenant and subsequent action has been ‘Serving light’ to say the least. The argument goes: If it concerns the serving it is the job of the military to sort it out with public money.
We all know that there is a significant role and place for charities in support of ‘serving personnel’.
We also know that not all military problems have military solutions.
I would like to discuss how charities for the serving can improve their collective profile so that they do not get ignored, for example when it comes to the considerations of the CRG and grants from Libor fines and in the wider context of being known and appreciated for our support of the military.
the fact it took over 6 years to get the serving cluster established is evidence enough of what we are up against.
Challenge for the cluster i feel.
